A Mod expression for the 1960s. Mod was an aspirational working class youth culture which used sharp and sartorial style as a rebellious statement against their allotted place in life so many expressions were associated with this. So English expression 'at sixes and sevens' means in a physical or metaphorical mess, all over the place, and was used by Shakespeare. But the price of t shirts in Woolworth's selling discounted which were inferior quality clothing to that which the Mods aspired, was seven shillings and sixpence written 7/6- . The two references materialized in the Mod terms 'Not your 7/6' meaning something was not cheap and/or messy clothing
"The mod lifestyle was about conspicuous spending on quality goods. Suits had to be tailored, not bought off-the-peg, and anyone who did turn up at an all-nighter wearing a low-cost version of mod fashion would be labelled a seven and six. The numbers are a reference to pre-decimalized British currency and the cost of cheap T-shirts in Woolworths." Fraser McAlpine BBC World Service

"Of course it's a nice suit what did you think? Real mohair mate not your seven and six- "
"She turned up lookin' a bit seven and six to be honest I wouldn't date her again"

Get the Not Your Seven and Six mug.And once the more zealous members are gone, let's face it, want to grow old with there kids and family. And if you getting busted for leading the coalition isn't a huge deal to them. So, once your gone, the risk to THOSE people would theoretically subside immediately by virtue of the impetus for what's happening being exposed and thus ending the conflict.
Hym "Not everyone is as invested in the cover up as you. Or old. Once the zealots are gone the people who don't actually care that the zealots are gone will act out of sheer self-preservation. Theoretically speaking of course. And you know, an assassination like that must clearly have been PLANNED. Right? You would have to know where Charlie Kirk was going to be. Find a viable bird's nest by casing the place beforehand. Find a way to get the gun to the sniper's den without being seen. And then you would need an escape route that avoids cameras. A place you could change your clothes in case you were seen as you fled. A get-away car. A route that would avoid both police on the way to the shooting and traffic cameras. And then you would need to drive the speed limit all the way home to resume your daily life without interrupting your work schedule in such a way that it draws suspicion. This guy clearly didn't just wake up one morning and say 'Hey imma do a murder right-quick.' No. This was PLANNED."

Get the its not social time at wendys mug.Fuck you Baldur's Gate guy and what are YOU doing? Are you just taking the meta narrative of MY thing writing a story around that? Jordan Peterson, Megyn Kelly, and Ben Shapiro collude to use the power of 'the ultimate brain' that they have enslaved for their own ends. Jordan Peterson has got DAME AYLIN imprisoned to make himself immortal. MY INITIALS. The two first merchants of the game? No? Because that look like that's what you did. The Dark Ugre? I would be quoting myself to say "Can you resist THE URGE?" AND the end of the Dark Urge is even a metacommentary on determinism. So that is CLEARLY a reference to me. I both wrote and AM the character. You did the same thing I did. And NO she can still be wrong to fuck him you piece of shit no that us not how that works.
Hym "No I am not just copy and pasting from YouTube. And to the extent that I am, I'm either doing it for clarity I the form of the definition of a word I'm going to riff on OR I'm doing it for ease where I'm copy and pasting MY OWN words to either move them around or transfer the from one box to the next OOOOR... OOOOR... I'm using some initial presupposition from there as either a starting point or evidence for the thing I want to talk about and it is WITHIN THE CONFINES of copyright law. There is an explicit carve-out for THE NEWS... Which is where I'm getting it. And to the extent that I'M NOT. It's from people who are peddling the same exact information as one another and citing the same studies. ACCORDING TO SUCHIR BALAJI (Who was whistleblower about AI NOT MEETING THE4 FACTOR CRITERIA FOR COPYRIGHT) WHAT YOU ARE DOING IS NOT. So that is MORE than just your shitty, useless book getting dumped in as training data. MY IDEAS WHERE THE GOOD ONES. THEIR IDEAS weren't even THEIR ideas. So no I am not doing that. Fuck you. What is good about the story is ME. And Baldur's Gate games are USUALLY real time games, right?"

Get the No I am not just copy and pasting from YouTube mug.Similar to the infamous "reverse identity theft" strategy that a dishonest/selfish person uses in an attempt to avoid responsibility/prosecution for a crime that he did indeed commit, this type of sleazeball irrelevantly mentions the National "Do Not Call" Registry anytime he wishes to avoid having to deal with business/complaints which the local authorities or other 100%-legitimate parties have phoned him about and are attempting to discuss with him.
A National "Do Not Call" List abuser pretends that he honestly believes that any caller whom he doesn't want to talk to (cops, angry neighbors/businessmen, bill/tax-collectors, etc.) is just a nameless telemarketer in disguise, and who is merely posing as the real authority-figure who actually **is** needing to discuss some urgent/serious matter with him. This "Excuse me, but I don't believe that you're really ___; I suspect that you're just claiming that in an attempt to sell me something or pressure me into listening to your long-winded/hard-sell sales-pitch. I am on the National 'Do Not Call' list; please remove my name from your mailing-list" strategy can often be surprisingly effective, especially since many telemarketers and crank-callers actually **do** falsely identify themselves as a wronged individual or authority-figure in an attempt to compel the person whom they call to listen to them and/or be upset/intimidated, and so it is indeed conceivable that someone might automatically suspect that the unwelcome caller was merely an impersonator, especially if the person answering the phone had supposedly been of innocent mind and therefore had not expected to be contacted by anyone in authority.
